Is tomato sauce better than brown sauce, and does it have to be Heinz

Brasso ought to be good, it's for cleaning brass, but is your preference the liquid or the wadding, the stuff that used to be called Duraglit?

I use Silvo wadding on Bakelite radio and telephone cases. I wonder what the difference is between Silvo & Brasso?
